Copy masive courses

Plugin Description

This plugin is designed to facilitate bulk duplication or copying of courses within a platform, based on pre-established configurations. It allows administrators to quickly replicate entire courses, including their structure and content, without the need to recreate each course manually.

Process Overview

• Upload CSV File: Administrators can upload a CSV file specifying the details of the courses they wish to duplicate.

• Validation: After uploading, the plugin performs validations to ensure that only correctly configured courses are duplicated.

• Generate Tasks: Once validated, users can generate the respective adhoc tasks with a single click.

Afterward, the cron job or specific launcher for adhoc tasks will handle the rest.

Usage Instructions

2. After uploading, a series of validations will be performed.

3. Click on "Create Tasks" to generate adhoc tasks for copying each of the courses (tasks will only be created for courses that pass validation).

Additionally, you can follow the example file already provided.
